But I just know they'll make it as budget as possible, probably having review scores and quotes printed on the actual boxart. Personally I think they should not even have the PS3 banner at the top, nor any logos (like the SCE logo, or whatever).

The games are going to be ruined by trophies anyway. What's on the box pales into insignificance in comparison.

That moment of relief, doubt, perhaps even guilt, followed by disquiet and unease as a colossus topples crowned with YOU GOT A TROPHY! YOU DID A GOOD THING SEE? YOU GOT SWEET TROPHY.

You still can't turn off the notifcations can you? I hate the bastard things. Ruin every game they're in. So many firmware updates, so much pissing me around and basic functionality is still in the stone age.

I'm slightly disappointed that they didn't update the character models, just the textures. Sly Cooper seems to have had quite a few models redrawn. But then I remember it's in 1080p, decent framerate and even 3D if I want it.

I played the Sly Cooper games quite recently, those are the original character models in the PS3 shots.

It's just a game that works well because of it's heavily stylised art direction. I imagine Okami would look amazing given the same treatment. I wish they actually had tweaked Sly a bit, between the three games they were a bit sloppy about scale and Sly ends up very small in comparison to one character by the third game when he was taller than them in the first.

I think you can turn off notifications somewhere. But it turns off message alerts and other things too.

I honestly have no idea what the big deal with the trophy notifications is. There's the little chime and the little box in the upper right corner and that's it. What's so hard to bear about this?

Normally nothing, but in this it's a clear, positive incentive to do something that many people felt conflicted about. Maybe they could dish out trophies for finding them instead?
